In that year, being In a dying condition, he was set at liberty with permission to go to his native county, Kent, but he died on the way there at Lewisham.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Royal Family of England, Vol. 1 of 2 I have no such ambitious or far-reaching intention. What I propose to do is to give a short account of what I may call the private, as opposed to the public, history of the several Kings and Queens, of their children, and of such of their immediate descendants or relatives as have played any part in English History, or have lived in England and in doing this I wish to avoid, as far as possible, reference to those great political events which are in the province of regular historians, and are more or less known to all readers.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Royalty Restored or London Under Charles II, Vol. 1 of 2 No social history of the court of Charles II. has heretofore been written. The Grammont Memoirs, devoid of date and detail, and addressed 'to those who read only for amusement, ' present but brief imperfect sketches of the wits and beauties who thronged the court of the merry monarch whilst the brilliant Frenchman sojourned in England. Pepys, during the first nine years of the Restoration, narrates such gossip as reached him regarding Whitehall and the practices that obtained there. Evelyn records some trifling actions of the king and his courtiers, with a view of pointing a moral, rather than from a desire of adorning a tale. To supply this want in our literature, I have endeavoured to present a picture of the domestic life of a king, whose name recalls pages of the brightest romance and strangest gallantry in our chronicles.

This book was released on 2016-12-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Materials for the History of Lancaster, Vol. 2 Prominent in the annals of English History stands the name of time-honoured Lancaster, distinguished alike amidst regal pomp and chivalry, and the sterner realities of war and internecine strife. Few places can boast of a history stretching back so far into the mists of antiquity, and fewer still can claim so close a connection with the Royal Family of England. The primary cause of this was the existence of a beautifully situated and strongly fortified Castle, for, probably, without the protection afforded by it, the town in its early days would have been swept away, owing to its proximity to the Scottish border (which then extended as far south as Kendal), and to its consequent liability to attacks and rapine.

Download or read book The Queens of England Vol 2 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Sydney Wilmot and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Queens of England, Vol. 2 of 2 Hile Anne Boleyn is popularly regarded as a bad woman who supplanted her mistress and brought about her own well-merited misfortunes, the lady whom Henry chose as his third queen is venerated as the Protestant mother of saintly Edward VI. And the unhappy victim of a savage tyrant. For this error it is easy to account. Clever, high-spirited Anne, intending only to amuse her friends, had made many enemies with her unbridled tongue; for to be held up to ridicule before the whole court is an injury few would lightly forgive. Jane, on the other hand, gave offence to no one; she was a model of discretion, a fair, placid beauty who sought to enchain her royal lord by yielding implicit obedience to his will, and during the eighteen months she shared his throne never uttered a single sentence which historians have considered worthy of record. Nevertheless Jane was in some ways more culpable than Anne. The gay young Boleyn long resisted the King's advances, and had she been allowed to wed the man she loved would willingly have relinquished the crown held out to her; but Jane eagerly accepted Henry's attentions, though she knew that in stealing the King's heart she would practically be the murderer of her mistress; and as her wedding took place the day after Anne's execution, must have been preparing for marriage with the wife-killer at the moment of her rival's death. Jane Seymour was not (as is generally supposed) a Protestant, but continued to her death a member of the Romish Church, though her son was brought up in the Reformed faith; and she pleased the Catholics by showing kindness to the Princess Mary and inducing her father to take notice of her, whilst Anne had given offence by the contrary conduct.

Download or read book Middle English Literature written by Christopher Cannon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a boldly original account of Middle English literature from the Norman Conquest to the beginning of the sixteenth century. It argues that these centuries are, in fundamental ways, the momentous period in our literary history, for they are the long moment in which the category of literature itself emerged as English writing began to insist, for the first time, that it floated free of any social reality or function. This book also charts the complex mechanisms by which English writing acquired this power in a series of linked close readings of both canonical and more obscure texts. It encloses those readings in five compelling accounts of much broader cultural areas, describing, in particular, the productive relationship of Middle English writing to medieval technology, insurgency, statecraft and cultural place, concluding with an in depth account of the particular arguments, emphases and techniques English writers used to claim a wholly new jurisdiction for their work. Both this history and its readings are everywhere informed by the most exciting developments in recent Middle English scholarship as well as literary and cultural theory. It serves as an introduction to all these areas as well as a contribution, in its own right, to each of them.

The grave, Henry had three daughters by his wife Eleanor. Matilda, the eldest, was married to Henry, Duke of Saxonv Bavaria, Westphalia, &c.; and from her is de scended the present royal family of Great Bri tain: Eleanor, the second daughter, was married to Alfonso the Good, King of Castile; and Joan, the youngest, was united to William II., King Of Sicily, a prince of the Norman line of Guiscard. Two of his natural children have Obtained the general notice of history on account of the cele brity of their mother, and Of theirown eminent qualities. The first, who was born while Stephen was yet on the throne Of England, was William, surnamed Longsword, who married the heiress of the Earl of Salisbury, and succeeded to the high titles and immense estates Of that baron; the second was the still better known Geoffrey, who was born about the time when Henry be came king, and who was made Bishop of Lincoln at a very early age. He had much of Henry's spirit and ability, and, if an indifferent prelate, he was a bold and successful warrior in his non age, when (during the first insurrection promoted by his father's legitimate sons) he gained in the north some signal advantages for the king, to whom he and his brother, William Longsword, were ever faithful and affectionate. Geoffrey was subsequently made chancellor, when, like Becket in the same capacity, he constantly ac companied the king. In his dying moments, Henry expressed a hope or a wish that he might be made Archbishop of York, a promotion which, as we shall find, he afterwards obtained.
